Chapter 415: From High Stars?!
Ning Xue's eyes fluttered open, her long lashes brushing against Zhao Tian's skin.
She shifted slightly, her head still resting on his chest, and smiled as she felt the steady rhythm of his heartbeat beneath her ear.
Zhao Tian, feeling her movement, slowly opened his eyes. His gaze softened as he looked down at Ning Xue, her delicate face enriched by the morning light.
He tightened his embrace ever so slightly, pulling her closer and pressing a tender kiss to the top of her head.
"Good morning," he whispered, his voice still husky with sleep.
Ning Xue smiled, her eyes shimmering with warmth and affection as she gazed up at him. "Good morning, Tian," she said gently, her voice barely above a whisper.
She then turned her eyes to the back of Zhao Tian and saw Ning Zhilian sitting on the bed, tying her blonde hair.
"Big Sister..."
Ning Zhilian had a gentle smile on her face as she glanced at them. "Good morning..."
With a nod, Ning Xue got down from the bed, her body instinctively arching as she stretched her arms high above her head as a yawn slipped past her lips "I shall order someone to prepare the bath and tea for us."
Zhao Tian slowly slid out from under the covers of the bed, his feet touching the cool floor as he stood up. "Okay..."
As she stepped out of the room, Ning Zhilian made her way toward him and suddenly hugged him, her hands entwining around his waist.
Hm? Zhao Tian was taken aback by her sudden hug, and because she was wearing a thin dress, he could feel her soft boobs pressing on his chest.
"Zhilian..."
Ning Zhilian retracted the hug and took a step back, a sweet smile gracing her lips "I... it felt like its been so long.. since I got a proper sleep."
"i am always cautious that something might happen.. if I fell asleep and I couldn't sleep properly."
"But... yesterday, when you were beside me... I just thought, since you are here... i can sleep peacefully."
She scratched her head awkwardly. "I know... it is quite silly, but it is what it is... Thank you for that."
Understanding her feelings, Zhao Tian nodded his head and returned her smile.
*beep* *beep*
However, at this time, Zhao Tian suddenly heard a beep sound and a deep frown creased his white eyebrows.
H-Huh? Ning Zhilian panicked and glanced around in confusion "W-What is happening, Tian?"
At this time, Ning Xue also returned to the room after informing the servant to prepare a bath and morning tea for them.
Zhao Tian took a blue beacon from his storage ring and saw it beeping in red.
Hm? Curiosity piqued, Ning Xue walked to him and saw the beacon on his palm glowing in red.
"Tian, this is?"
Letting out a sigh, Zhao Tian replied "The artifact Shenyi gave me to check if anyone came close to our earth's vicinity."
H-Huh? Ning Xue and Ning Zhilian were startled to hear this and Ning Xue hastily asked, "Wait, Tian... there are people from outside coming towards our star?"
"Yeah..."
Ning Zhilian narrowed her eyes and muttered "If they are this quick... maybe they are from this Space pirates organization?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Tian gave a slight nod "Most likely."
Ning Xue's eyes crescented in concern and she hugged Zhao Tian "Then... Tian, you don't have to go and check on them..."
"Let's just leave this star."
Ning Zhilian also agreed on this and sighed in her heart. She knows it is selfish to leave like this abandoning everyone, but they can't confront an enemy, knowing well that they are going to lose.
Zhao Tian patted Ning Xue's head "No, Xue'er... let me go and check on them."
"The others should be already inside the artifact. If the situation gets dire... I will signal you and you bring Zhilian inside the artifact."
Ning Xue gave a reluctant nod and kissed him, her breath hitting his lips "Be careful out there, Tian..."
"En..."
Looking at the back of Zhao Tian as he dashed from the balcony, Ning Xue's gaze trembled and a strange sense of worry crept on her heart.
She turned to look at Ning Zhilian and gently grasped her hand "Sister... let me take you back to the artifact now."
Huh? Ning Zhilian was confused and tilted her head "What artifact?"
"Come with me.." *swoosh*
...
Zhao Tian, who was flying high in the air, retrieved his mobile phone from his storage ring and called Zhao Ying.
Zhao Ning, who was scrolling through Insta saw her Brother calling and quickly attended the call "Tian'er?"
"Ying'er, everyone is inside the artifact, right?"
Zhao Ning frowned slightly and nodded "Yeah, everyone is here.. Aunt Zuiye and Yueli too. They are all here.. ahh, Sister Xue is out in Zhenzhu."
"Ling Sisters are sleeping inside the artifact, so yeah... all of them are here."
Zhao Tian gave a nod "Good."
He cancelled the call and then called Joshua Brown to alert him about this.
Seeing his number, Joshua Brown also quickly picked up his call, bringing the mobile close to his ear.
"Mr.Tian?"
Zhao Tian spoke "Quickly alert the president of Russia. Someone from the High Stars is coming towards that point of Earth."
H-Huh? Joshua Brown was completely taken aback but soon, understanding the situation, he nodded his head.
"A-As you say, Mr.Tian."
Cancelling the call, panic gripped his heart "I-It has only been a week, and we are already getting invaded."
...
*swoosh* *swoosh*
Two enormous futuristic looking space arks dashed closer to Earth.
And in one of the two great arks, one middle aged man was standing on the front, looking at the blue green planet.
"Hm, this star looks so small compared to other High Stars..."
The man who was beside him spoke in a respectable tone "It is to be expected, Your Highness."
"After all, this star has just been ascended into a high star."
"Yeah..." The man nodded his head and turned his gaze to the planet that they were going to occupy.
